Good thinking. I actually already had the fiv/felv snap test done at the local vet. Just to be sure. It was negative.Originally posted by moosmom
Cheshirekatt,
Woohoo!! Another kitty! Good for you! Kittens are the easiest to introduce to your cats. I was going to suggest keeping the kitten isolated until she's got a clean bill of health by the vet. Oops, too late. Also, have the vet do a Teiter/Alisa test for Feline Leukemia/Feline Aids. Kittens that young usually test false positive when the "stick" test is done. The Teiter/Alisa test requires a blood sample and takes about 24-48 hours for the results. This way you don't put your other cats at risk.
Good luck with your new kitty! I hope everything turns out okay.I just want her to go to our regular vet for her full check-up.
My friend just called and said she named the two kitties George and Gracie.
